For any weight loss program its important to understand how to increase your RMR or metabolism. Your RMR or resting metabolic rate is the amount of energy you burn in your daily activities.
Do you know someone who can eat anything they want and they are skinny as a rail even if they dont workout? Well that person has a very high RMR.
There are several ways to increase metabolism but lets look at the factors that drive your metabolism RMR first.
1. Genetics - you have very little control, but you are not a prisoner of your genes.
2. Lean Muscle Mass - this one throws most people off because women think, oh no I dont want muscles and men think I guess I have to look like a body builder. Lean muscle mass is simply your weight minus the weight of your organs, bones, fluids and fat. You increase lean muscle mass primarily through eating properly, resistance exercise, and a lifestyle that doesnt promote catabolizing activites (smoking, heavy drinking and drug use)
3. Frequency of meals - the more meals the more the metabolic processes take place in your body and the faster your metabolism.
4. Water Intake - dehydration is a major drag on metabolism.
Most people are dehydrated and they dont know it.
5. Sleep - getting enough rest allows the body to function at a higher metabolic level.
For more information check my source. It tells you more information than you ever wanna knew about your metabolism. It also goes into greater detail about different ways to speed your metabolism.

WHAT to eat for losing weight
• Eat plenty of fruits and vegetables, especially NC (negative calorie) food.
* Print these lists. They will be your ... "Bible", from now on !
* Dill and parsely - include them in all your salads. Also ognion + garlic.
* Try eat mostly fresh vegs & fruits (whenever possible, of course)
* If you really want a book, then check this out: The Negative Calorie Diet Workbook & Cookbook - eBook (Win95/98 only). Read more about this e-book here.
• Eat fish, chicken, beef, pork. (preferences are in this order)
* If you are a vegetarian, then ignore this!
* Avoid fat meat
• Eat 2-3 slices of bread/day. Don't EVER exclude bread from your diet!
• Snacks between meals (if needed): apples, oranges, grepfruits and other NC fruits
* Don't cheat ... NO cookies, chips, candies, brownies etc!
* EVEN if they have "low fat" indication... They might have low fat, yet they can have lots of CALORIES !!!
• About rice, potatoes, beans, [xxx]nuts, pastry, pasta... you know!
* Don't eat too much of those, at least during the first weeks of the diet. I'm not a low carb addict, but I've noticed weight gains if consuming those in large quantities, especially when associated with other foods.
* If you like them a lot, try and eat them like one meal. A nice delicious plate of spaghetti could be your lunch (never dinner!), followed by a nice big apple. These rich starch foods are not good for dinner!
* At dinner time, chose mainly large mixed veggies salads... with fish, lean meat or cheese (if you are not a vegetarian).
if u want to lose weight the best food to it are baked potatoes with nothing on it. no salt no nothing just plain. u can eat a 10000000000 baked potatoes till ur stuff and not gain a pound. i heard that from a weight loss tape. the best drink is water or gatorade. thats a start then when you work out do some taeboo. if u want a macine. run with dumbells on a treadmill. u could do the rocky workout. but thats a new story. u could use a butterfly macine i think it works the abs
1) It is not just the amount you eat, but what you eat. Lean meats and vegtables that snap are a good place to start. And by snap I mean fresh and not boiled or doused with better or whatever.
2) Exercise moderatly but for about an hour every other day. Spend half of that walking or running at a good enough pace for you to feel labored. The other half of the time use weights, or exercises such as push ups or situps to get a muscle "burn". A gym is also an option, but I don't know if you have the money for or want to spend the money on it.
3) Sleep well. To bed earlier and up earlier. Exercise in the morning when you wake up, not in the evening before bed. 7 hours of GOOD sleep is a must.
4) Occupy yourself with a hobby that keeps your attention for a long period of time. A hobby like this keeps your mind focused and gives less of a chance for snacking from boredom.
That is a good place to start... if you see good results, keep it up and modify to fit you... if it does not, see a doctor AND a trainer
Keep working out, drink water a lot, eat 5 to 6 meals a day but in small quantities, vegtables are important specially cucumber and lattice, fruits not be eaten after meals except by 2 to 3 hours, minimize the starch quantities in your meals lots of salad is important, your last meal must be before you sleep by 2 to 3 hours
the most important thing is you don't lose patient wait and have a strong will to be as what you want
you might have some more ideas from www.ivillage.com
good luck |

Eating healthy is an excellent start. In my experience running or any other aerobic exercise helps. The reason for this is once you get your body in a steady rhythm of being active, then it is constantly buring calories even while you sleep.
Some people who are overweight may want to find a couple of low impact exercises that they feel comfortable doing. Remember, variety is the spice of life. Doing the same exercise can be beneficial but most people tend to lose interest shortly.
Finally, I think one of the most important things you can do is to surround your self with positive people. Pictures from magazines are ok, but they set up unrealistic goals that can discourage rather than help. Find a friend who is a little more advanced physically or someone that has the same goals as you. A partner can keep you motivated when you need it. Also humans have varying degrees of competition towards one another so that could drive you to push yourself further! I really hope this helps because it has helped some people that i know. Good luck. |

1 Don't stop drinking water, that should be all that you are drinking. Eat very small portions of healthy food: examples veggies, fruit, and lean meat. To lose weight you must avoid fast food, soda, and high calorie foods. Water weight will go down as you lose the fat and mass, but water is essential to your health. Good Luck |
